1. Cast your bread upon the waters: for you shall find it after many days.
2. Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for you know not what evil shall be upon the earth.
3. If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: and if the tree falls toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it shall be.
4. He that observes the wind shall not sow; and he that regards the clouds shall not reap.
5. As you know not what is the way of the wind, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so you know not the works of God who makes all.
